Personal Web Sharing


What can I do with Personal Web Sharing?

Mac OS Personal Web Sharing is software you can use to create your own Web server and share files with everyone on the Internet. Once you set up your server, add content to it, and turn on Web Sharing, others who know the address of your server can visit your personal site and view its content. As long as your computer is connected to a TCP/IP network (intranet or Internet) and your server is running, the server's content is available to all users of the network, regardless of the browser or the kind of computer they're using.

How do I get started?

With Personal Web Sharing installed on your computer, you'll see the Web Sharing control panel (in the Control Panels folder) and the Web Pages folder (at the root level of your hard disk). You use the control panel to turn Web sharing on or off and to designate the folder and home page you want to use as your server. The Web Pages folder contains the content you want to share.

See "Using Personal Web Sharing" in the Web Pages folder.
